The
Lewiston-Porter School District announced the kindergarten registration process
for students entering school this fall will get underway in coming weeks.

"We are delighted
to welcome you and your kindergartner to our program," said Tamara Larson,
principal of the Lewiston-Porter Primary Education Center. "The first step
toward the kindergarten adventure is the registration process."

She reports
parents of children who will be 5 years old on or before Dec. 1 may register
their child on the following dates:

•Tuesday, March
10, from 9:30 to 10:45 a.m. and 1:30 to 2:45 p.m.

•Wednesday, March
11, from 9:30 to 10:45 a.m. and 1:30 to 2:45 p.m.

It is not
necessary for parents to bring their child to this registration, as they will
be invited to a kindergarten orientation event in May.

Parents will need
to furnish the following at time of registration: proof of age; the child's
birth certificate and/or passport; parent photo ID; a driver's license and/or
passport; and proof of residency. This may include two of the following
documents: vehicle registration, vehicle insurance card, utility bill, medical
insurance card, homeowner's insurance statement or payroll document.

Other acceptable
documents are a lease, purchase offer or letter from a homebuilder on the
firm's letterhead. These documents must be signed and include the resident's
name, district address and closing date and/or certificate of occupancy.

Parents will also
need to furnish a record of immunizations for their child at time of
registration. All documents will be photocopied and returned to the parent.

For more
information, parents may call the Lewiston-Porter Primary Education Center
office at 716-286-7220.
